"1000 Acts of Love and Kindness"
For Valentine's Day, Lakeway TaeKwonDo attempted to perform 1000 Acts of Love and Kindness. While we did not reach 1000, everyone who participated should feel proud of his/her actions and hopefully got joy out of helping others. Maybe this will carry over to our daily lives?!?! We collected $625 which will be donated to a family in need at Lake Travis Elementary School. Thank you to everyone who participated and/or donated!
This is a program where everyone wins, and at minimal cost. We are trying to take the meaning of the ideas and principles that we teach in the school to a new level, and this is one of our first steps.
What better Self-Defense than showing love?
A complete list of the Acts performed will be found here soon (I just erased list accidentally and need to find another block of time to re-create it).
The winning Act, with 48% of the votes, was taking in a Foster Child that was in an abusive situation.
The donated money went to purchase a refrigerator for a family of 6 in the school district living without one.
